U.S. Rep. Dan Lipinski (IL-3) hosted a veterans fair June 17 at the Orland Township Building in Orland Park. Rep. Lipinski’s congressional staff, as well as close to 50 agencies, organizations and businesses that specialize in providing services to veterans, were available to provide local veterans and their families with assistance on a variety of issues, including military personnel and medical records, veterans’ claims and benefits, medals earned but not received, Veterans Affairs hospital billing, placement in VA homes and GI Bill information.

“I wish to thank everyone who attended my veterans fair in Orland Park. It was great to connect so many people with the organizations and agencies that help our veterans. Getting those who served our country the assistance they need always will be one of my top priorities. I look forward to hosting more special events for seniors, veterans, and job seekers in the coming weeks and months throughout the Third Congressional District. If you cannot attend, you also are welcome, as always, to contact or stop in any of my district offices for assistance.”
